Major animal groups emerged, competition and predation for food resources increased, and new ecosystems appeared.

In evolutionary terms, "suddenly" is about 20 million years. The consensus is that a bunch of factors came together, including increased oxygen levels, genetic transformations, environmental changes, and a sort of arms race fostered by natural selection. Why the sudden history lesson in an art ... Read full article.
